A Is the 29th European Union Film Festival (EUFF) unfolds in New Delhi, cinephiles can look forward to a rich tapestry of European cinema, showcasing 26 award-winning films from across the continent in over 31 languages. Running from November 7 to 16, 2024, this year's festival promises to be an immersive journey through European society, culture, and diverse themes, held at three venues: the India Habitat Centre, Instituto Cervantes, and Goethe-Institut / Max Mueller Bhavan. With each film, the EUFF 2024 aims to strengthen the cultural ties between Europe and India, offering an inclusive platform for storytelling that transcends borders.
The EUFF 2024 opens with Italy's 'La Chimera,' a film by noted director Alice Rohrwacher, which competed for the prestigious Palme d'Or at the 76th Cannes Film Festival. 'La Chimera' explores the contrast between life and death, the sacred and the profane, themes that resonate deeply with Rohrwacher's own experiences. As she shared, "The proximity of sacred and profane, of death and life, that characterized the years in which I was growing up has always fascinated me...
This is why I decided at last to make a film that tells this layered story, this relationship between two worlds...
As some grave-robbers say, down our way it's the dead that give life." This sentiment of storytelling as a bridge between cultures and eras is echoed throughout the festival.
